宜必思 巴黎 意大利托尔比亚克酒店

If there are "writers' writers", then there are chefs' chefs. A Meilleur Ouvrier de France, a mainstay of the Ferrandi gastronomy school, promoter of culinary design, restaurateur in Tokyo, Éric Trochon is that sort of chef – admired and yet relatively little known. He and his sommelier wife preside over this elegant, intimate-feeling restaurant with a decor that blends Brazilian rosewood furnishings and paintings and ceramics by a Korean artist. The menu also errs towards minimalism, with on-point proposals including an omakase menu. The dishes showcase modern cuisine with Asian touches, such

In the heart of Paris's Chinatown, this Chinese restaurant is popular with many people from the local Asian community, who have adopted it as their canteen. In a room that is always full (the service runs non-stop from lunch to dinner, and is fast-paced, to say the least!), they serve fine Cantonese specialities, including crispy pork and Peking duck. A truly authentic meal, without breaking the bank! You can't book here; you just have to go and wait to be seated.

Between the Left Bank and Boulevard St Germain, this dinky restaurant celebrates the alliance of Shawn and Toshi, respectively in charge of the dining room and the kitchen, and partners in this culinary adventure. Chef Toshitaka Omiya prefers authenticity to fancy frills. His cooking, which revolves around fine seasonal ingredients, hits the spot every time, regaling both the eye and the tastebuds, as he rolls out disarmingly, yet stunningly simple, subtle recipes. His surprise menus, which are practically made to measure for each of the establishment’s 8 tables, are a treasure trove of imagin

The restaurant’s name is a fusion of the chef’s first name, Mory, and that of Yasuke, the first and only African samurai of Japan, which rather sets the scene. The chef successfully mixes his Malian and Senegalese roots, his fascination for Japan and, of course, his passion for Gallic food and techniques. The end result is inspired and original, featuring dishes that are distinctive, accomplished and sprinkled in a melting-pot of flavours: flame torched langoustines, achu sauce, piquillos and aromatic herbs; confit of croaker, kik alicha, fermented cabbage and confit citrus fruit; Aubrac beef

Indulgence and good wine: Gilles Choukroun has taken his friend Émile Cotte's motto and made it his own! In the lively atmosphere of a Parisian bistro, he serves up his generous take on hearty bistro classics: marinated herring and potato salad; calf's head, tongue and brains in sauce ravigote; floating island with praline and crème anglaise… Appealing menu-carte on the blackboard.

A stone's throw from the banks of the Seine, this small, quietly unobtrusive restaurant sports a minimalist interior in line with today’s quest for authenticity rather than hot air! Chef Tanaka, formerly of Pierre Gagnaire, is a fan of fresh ingredients and precision. Armed with boundless creativity and imagination, he conjures up enticing dishes that keep us drooling right up to the very end. The vaulted cellar in the basement is home to a wine bar and delivers take-away meals. It is also nice to know that you will always be surprised here, because the single set menu changes regularly.

Bruno Verjus's approach is to select the finest ingredients and cook them with humility and the utmost respect. This remarkable character was previously an entrepreneur, blogger and food critic. Behind the counter (where diners are seated on comfortable bar stools), he waxes lyrical about his suppliers and the desire to take a back seat to the artisans who produce what he then cooks – on that note, when it comes to either the recipes or the ingredients, the chef considers himself to be a "middle man". Everything is made to order, with garnishes and sauces designed with just one thing in mind:
